The idea that voting Americans are more ignorant of international news, geography, history, and politics has been strongly and robustly quantitatively demonstrated repeatedly over decades.

The savvy international graduate student can't vote. We're talking about people who fill in ballots.

Voters are more likely to speak only English, not have a passport and live in less ethnically diverse neighborhoods. No reputable numerical survey disputes this.

There's substantial empirical evidence here. Maybe it disagrees with your optimism and vibes but sorry, that's not how the world works

I personally think if you claim to be a global superpower than even people in other countries are a stakeholder and should be allowed to vote in your elections but that's another topic

Even without the recent MAGA wave, Americans on both sides of the party line have always thought that. Even in the corporate world the domestic market is always the primary target and international is an afterthought

That's somehow even worse.

The inability of the broader citizenry to stop it, and the "leadership" in the Democratic party to even mount any kind of opposition or build an alternative to where things have gone ... speaks volumes about the "other" 50%.

"Not All Americans" is looking like a pretty shit response at this point. Especially when major chunk of that 50% still underscores some of the major talking points of the Trump people even when they oppose Trump.

Not voting was saying OK to Trump, fully knowing what's coming. This "less than 50%" argument doesn't stand, especially because the winner got proper majority of the casted votes.
